ROBL – The Rossendorf Beamline at ESRF

The HZDR Institute of Resource Ecology operates its own beamline at the European Synchrotron Research Facility (ESRF), the Rossendorf Beamline (ROBL).

ROBL provides two experimental stations for synchrotron spectroscopy and diffraction techniques, where basic research on the chemistry of f-elements, the disposal of radioactive waste and environmental chemistry can be carried out.

Beamtime will be assigned to HZDR and external users based on the scientific value of the submitted proposal, which will be evaluated by review panels of the HZDR and ESRF respectively.
